Rebel cavalzy scouts are seven miles this aise of Carlisie. A battle is expected on Sun- ay.

A Mechanicsburg dispatch, dated ten p.m. says there is no prospect that the rebels will be there before Sunday morning. PHILADELPHIA, June 2.—A report from Harrisburg at midnjght says that the rebels had arrived opposite Duncannon Junction on the Juniata and Susquehanna railroad. It must be an error, as the National Telegraph line re- mains in order to Pitisburg this morning. The Rebels Opposite Columbia. PHILAVELPHIA, June 28.—The rebels occupy the Susquehannariver opposite Columbia, our troops having retired frora the western bank to Columbia. The bridge will probably be destreyed. It isa mile and a quarter long. The Columbia Bridge Burning. HARRISRURG, June 2—s p.m.—The bridge at Columbia is in flames. The Excitement in Philadelphia.

HARRISHCRG, June 28.—The city to-day has been comparatively quiet, considering the near approximation of the enemy. The banks ef the river have been lined with men, women, and children, hourly expecting the approach ot the enemy. ‘The trains departing trom here to-day have been crowded with persons fleeing from the city. York has been eccupied. A portion of the bridges on the Northern Central railroad this side of that place have been burned. + When gur troops fell back from Carlisle they leitin th® barracks equipments for one com- pany of cavalry. one regiment of infantry and 20,000 rations, Which have fallen into the hands of theenemy. There is a report that the bar- | racks have been burned, but ithad not been confirmed. The report of the capture of York last night was rather premature. In the afternoon the Chiet Burgess of the city, in company with some prominent citizens, hearing that the rebels ‘were coming, Started out to meet them to sur- render tre city. They had to go seven miles before they met the advance. In the meantime, the operator, believing the Chief Burgess had been captured, telegraphed that the rebels were coming into the town, and | then left. A fight took place late this afternoon at Wrightsville, opposite Columbia. The troops which were guarding the Northern Central railroad retreated to Columbia bridge on the approach of the enemy, and all crossed to this side of the river, except Col. Frick’s regiment, who remained at Wrightsville to guard the bridge. The rebels attacked him in heavy force, and in order to save men he was forced to cross tae Columbia bridge. This magnificent bridge wi then burned io prevent the rebels from reaching this side of the river, The Governor has information that the rebels are at Bainbridge, twelve miles above Colum- bia, with a pontoon train sufficiently large to construct a bridge. The rebels that drove our men trom Sterret’s Gup yesterday, aud then moved towards Duncannon, have returned to the Gap. No demonstration has been made on the Pennsy! vania railroad in that direction to- day, so far as known. Major Wynkoop has been appointed by Gen. Couch, Chief of Cavalry in this department, ‘apt.

Jen- ent, which had the skirmish at Geitysburg, arrived here to-day. He lost about three hundred men in prisoners and stragglers. The officers were sent to Ricnmond, and the men paroled. Some of them hive arrived. Stil) Later from Harrisburg. Harnisuvxc, June 4, midnight.—The artil- lery firmg heard to-day was a skirmish be- tween the enemy’s advance aul our outpost. No damage is known to have been done on either side. It occurred about five mileS from here. Our troops then fell back, and up to the present time the rebel advance is four miles trom here.

One more advance and they are ours. He then summons an organization of a storming column of one thousand men to vindicate the flag of the Union and the memory of its defenders who have fallen, promising promotion to the officers, and medals to the officers and pri- yates. A letter to the 20th reports no maierial change in the position ofattairs. The camp rumors about assaults by volunteers and generaf ut- tacks have proved unfounded. We are steadily advancing on the first parallel, which com- pletely encircles the outer rebel breastworks, ‘and our skirmishers are behind rifle-pits with- in twenty yards of the rebel intrenchments. ‘There are nightly skirmishes without any deti- nie result. seTters report that a consultation of rebel i was held, who unanimously requested General Gardner to strrender.
